Sausage Bites With Creamy Mustard Dipping Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the kielbasa crosswise 1/2 inch thick diagonally. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium (10 to 11-inch) sauté pan, add the kielbasa, and cook over medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes, turning occasionally, until the kielbasa is nicely browned on both sides.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, horseradish, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Serve the kielbasa hot from the pan with small wooden skewers and a dish of the mustard sauce on the side for dipping.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400ºF.
• Remove pizza dough from can. (Do not unroll dough.) Place dough on cutting board; cut crosswise in half. Unroll each half. Place 3 Singles down center of each dough piece; top diagonally with 1 sausage piece. Fold corners of dough over ends of each sausage piece, then fold 1 of the remaining corners of dough over sausage. Roll dough to completely enclose sausage; pinch seams together to seal. Spray lightly with cooking spray; roll in poppy seed until evenly coated.
• Place, seam sides down, on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.
• Bake 12 to 14 min. or until golden brown. Let stand 5 min. Meanwhile, mix remaining ingredients until blended.
